Rumours are rife that Bela Segal, sister of Sanjay Leela Bhansali, is contemplating signing Salman Khan and Rani Mukerji for her directorial debut, which will be produced by Bhushan Kumar of Super Cassettes Industries Ltd.

Reportedly, both Salman and Rani are close to Bhansali and Bela and signing the two A-list stars shouldn’t be a problem for the editor [of HUM DIL DE CHUKE SANAM, DEVDAS, BLACK] turned director. It’s true that Bela has spoken to Rani, Bhushan Kumar confirms the development in an exclusive conversation with this writer, In fact, Bela and Rani are good friends, but nothing is finalized yet. Rani is a busy actress and she needs to work on her dates to accommodate our project.

What about Salman? The actor shares a good rapport with Bhushan and Kishen Kumar [LUCKY is being co-produced by S.C.I.L. and Sohail Khan jointly], besides being close to Bhansali and Bela as well. Again, nothing is finalized, Bhushan adds. Well, we’ll await the official announcement!
